[BRLTTY] Problem with BRLTTY 4.2.1 for Windows

[Ollie]

Hello Michel, Samuel and all,
My friend Lord has just written that, with BRLTTY in console mode, 
without screen readers, both cursor routings and scrollkeys respond correctly.
At this point ,it would seem that the problem is between his device 
and NVDA - his device, as you Michel say you don't experience the 
same behaviour with yours.

No idea what can be done...
Ciao,
Ollie
